When Reprise's head of A&R brought me this tape from a Scottish band called Deckard he wanted to sign, I was so happy. Their songs sounded like hits. Unfortunately, radio stations didn't feel the same way. We brought the songs to the producers of the TV series Friends and they got it immediately and "What Reason" went right onto the second Friends soundtrack album. We never did manage to break the band in America but their songs still sound good today.
